DIDN'T TAKE A DARE.
A Young Woman Who Went on a
.TOllv Ride

A few evening since the citizens of
Princeton, KY, witnessed novel scene
that was very amusing The engaging
parties were Charles Lander, a young
merchant, and Miss Otie Tyler, a beauti-
full brunette, the daughter of Major
Tyler. Both are society people, and
stand high in the community. Mr..
Lander made an engagement with Miss
Tyler to take her out riding, at the same
time making wager that she would be
afraid to ride the animal through the
town. The wager was accepted. AT the
appointed hour he made his appearance
in front of her fathers residence, wear
ing an old stOvepipe hat, ragged duster,
long buck gloves, seated on an old dom
key, with bark bride and rope reins,
and leading a poor, old, blind, broken
down mule. Miss Tyler was expecting
a fiery horse, but was not to be outwit-
ted. In few minutes she made her
appearance in an old, faded dress and a
hat that must have been ferried across
in the ark. The picturesque couple,
without smile on their faces, rode
through the principal streets amid the
laughing and shouting people. Never
in the history of the town has scene
created so much merriment.

WASHINGTON, July 3.-Society is not
dead here. Mrs. Cleveland is here, and
while she remains there must be q
nucleus of society in Washington. Mrs.
Villas and Mrs. Whitney are out of town,
Miss Endicott is at Nahant. the secre-
tary of state is not taking any interest
in society, the attorney general has no
family, and hence the immediate circle
of official society which most surrounds
the mistress of the manse is not here.
But the ladies of the army and navy
have not all gone, and Mrs. Cleveland
is far from being lonely here at this
time. She is said to be very glad, in
deed, that so many are away. 1t gives
her social rest to have less of her time
taken up in social duties.

REPULsIVE RELICS.
The Story That Guiteau's Head Is
to Be Placed on Exhibition

The Story That Guiteau's Head Is
to Be Placed on Exhibition
Denied.
WASHINGTON, July 3.-The story that
the head of the assassin Guiteau is In
the possession of well-knOwn New
Yorker, who intends to place it on ex-
hibition, when it has always been sup
posed that it was buried under the floor
OF his prison in this city, is pronounced
untrue by the officers of the Army,
museum. AS is well known, the body
of Guiteau was taken to the museumi
after execution and placed in the hands
OF DIR. Schaffirt. who was at the time
the anatomist of the museum. He re-
moved the soft parts of the
body and all the bones, and
also the brain, which latter are now,
at the museum, though not on public
exhibition and never have been. 1t was
supposed that all the soft parts of the
body were burned, as is the uSual7cOurse
of the museum officers when body is
prepared for articulation. The museum
authorities do not know whether the
soft parts were actually destroyed or
not. They say that it is very possible
that instead of the muscles and flesh of
the head and neck being destroyed after
they were taken from the bones, they
might have been preserved and set mp,
and that is probably what is referred to
in the dispatcn from New York; but
the skeleton of Guiteau complete, head
and all, is now in the museum.

The Lands to Be Allotted.

WASHINGTON, July 3.-Petitions are
ON file in the interior department for
the allotment of lands in severalty to
the Indians in Michigan, Wisconsin and
Minnesota. These petitions have been
sent to the president for his opinion
and orders. Until this is done there
will be no opportunity to give accurate
descriptions of the lands and tribes in-
terested. The department officials say
that it would be manifest discourtesy to
the president for them to give to the
public the petitions which are being
considered, and upon which action is
not yet taken. The fact of the exist
ence of these petitions was intended to
be kept secret, as is usual with matters
of public interest in departments. The
servants of the people religiously keep
the people from knowing anything
about their business. III this case, how
ever, it is believed to be only right to
restrain public curiosity Until the presi-
dent has spoken. The commissioner of
Indian affairs says: ut is sufficient, at
present, for the public to know that the
allotment of lands in severalty is being
petitioned for, and by the Indians them-
selves, without any influence or sug<
geStiOnS from u.s. -

recent charming wedding was ceses
brateG which was novelty in its way.
The young people vowed to "serve, honor
and love" each other. Then came an
eloquent prayer. There was no giving in
marriage, no kiss of peace and no wedding
ring. During the ceremony the organ
family murmured "Call Me Thine own"
and at the end the march from Tam
hauser" was played. The bridal party
then marched down the aisle, with inter
missions of five feet between each of the
six couples. In the place of the ordinary
boutonnaire the six groomsmen wore
little daisies in their lapels made of Roman
gold petals, with diamond heart. The
bridesmaids wore jeweled marguerites in
their corsages, both flowers being favors
from the groom. The bride, like her
maids of honor, was lovely in spotless
white. Her hands were ungloved,
her fingers were jeweled, and at her
throat she wore large oriental ruby, set
in q circle of diamonds, which had been
an heirloom in the groom's family for sew
ersl generations. wedding tea was
served for the bridal party only. The mi
tial ceremony was the placing of the we'd
ding ring on the BRIDES finger, after it
had been hallowed with wish of each
member about the board.
